Introduction: The Premier Inn Kensington Olympia Hotel is
the made up of five separate white faced town houses converted into a single
building. Its location is actually right on the A4 West Cromwell Road which is
part of the main road leading into and out of West London. Its always very busy
(plenty of taxis) and gives direct access by road to
Heathrow Airport (about 20
minutes). The hotel is almost adjacent to Earls Court Road which has a a large
range of shops and bars including Grocery shops. 350 yards along the A4 to the
west is the large Tesco supermarket, while just over 400 yards to the East is
the Sainsbury's supermarket. Two major exhibition centres are within half a
mile, these are Earls Court and Olympia. 1/3 of a mile to the north is the
fashionable shopping of
Kensington High Street which itself leads to another popular landmark,
Kensington Palace and
Kensington
Gardens (0.7 miles). The location is on the west side of the capital so the
majority of attractions and nightlife are all to the east. Travelling east from
here finds South Kensington, Knightsbridge and Victoria. However one mile to the
south is the
Kings
Road, Chelsea which is a big destination both for the shopping during the
day and for the nightlife in the evening. Other local attractions include
Linley Sambourne House (0.4 miles),
Leighton house museum (0.4 miles),
Natural History Museum (0.9 miles), Royal Albert hall (1 mile) and the
Science
Museum (1 mile).
